The +driver will refuse to load on these revisions unless you specify the +"force=1" module parameter. + +There is one temperature measurement value, available as temp1_input in +sysfs. It is measured in degrees Celsius with a resolution of 1/8th degree. +Please note that it is defined as a relative value; to quote the AMD manual: + + Tctl is the processor temperature control value, used by the platform to + control cooling systems. Tctl is a non-physical temperature on an + arbitrary scale measured in degrees. It does _not_ represent an actual + physical temperature like die or case temperature. Instead, it specifies + the processor temperature relative to the point at which the system must + supply the maximum cooling for the processor's specified maximum case + temperature and maximum thermal power dissipation. + +The maximum value for Tctl is available in the file temp1_max. + +If the BIOS has enabled hardware temperature control, the threshold at +which the processor will throttle itself to avoid damage is available in +temp1_crit and temp1_crit_hyst. diff --git a/Documentation/hwmon/lis3lv02d b/Documentation/hwmon/lis3lv02d index effe949a7282..06534f25e643 100644 --- a/Documentation/hwmon/lis3lv02d +++ b/Documentation/hwmon/lis3lv02d @@ -3,7 +3,8 @@ Kernel driver lis3lv02d Supported chips: - * STMicroelectronics LIS3LV02DL and LIS3LV02DQ + * STMicroelectronics LIS3LV02DL, LIS3LV02DQ (12 bits precision) + * STMicroelectronics LIS302DL, LIS3L02DQ, LIS331DL (8 bits) Authors: Yan Burman <burman.yan@gmail.com> @@ -13,32 +14,52 @@ Authors: Description ----------- -This driver provides support for the accelerometer found in various HP -laptops sporting the feature officially called "HP Mobile Data -Protection System 3D" or "HP 3D DriveGuard".
